Someone somewhere probably put a hundred million bucks into Bitcoin when it hit 20k right? I really hope so.

All she held was inflated stock that she couldn't really sell off without losing influence in the company. sexpig by night posted:fun fact, Mad Dog Mattis was on that board and his big project was trying to sell those scam tests to the military using his connections. Not only that. But he found out about Theranos when a medical officer told him basically "this is a big scam and none of this crap works" so Mathis went "hmmmm" retired from the service, invested in the company and then joined the Theranos board of directors.

This guy: https://www.forbes.com/sites/heathe...d/#1434b696ce57 The story is pretty insane. He was making unprotected investments of his own money in European energy markets, got overextended and lost hundreds of millions of euros. Of course being a rich white guy I think they're letting him keep one of his houses but he went from being one of Norway's richest men to having almost nothing literally overnight.

He didn't look that good in the one episode of Desperate Housewives that my housemates watched that I definitely didn't watch all the way through. He looked old as gently caress on Lady Dynamite.

You can pay as many male models as you want to grow shaggy beards and dress up like "operators" to sell poo poo, but it's not gonna convince women to buy tactical gear. The attractiveness grift only works one way.

Is center-left supposed to be the American Sniper guy? They couldn’t find 8 living attractive conservatives so they had to spring for a 20 year old publicity photo and a Darwin Award winner?

He’s not a monster but you can get dehydrated just looking at him. I don’t want to say he looks dry, because that would be doing a disservice to the platonically hydrophobic nature of his essence.

I don't know where else to ask this as the D&D helps people argue thread has been archived. A while back there was some posts at another forum about research done on the Nazis. Specifically about what makes a Nazi. This person posting claimed that the U.S. or some other nation or a group of nations funded research where psychologists were interviewing captured Nazis to get a psychological profile. The claim was then the only thing that tied them all together was a lack of empathy. Mix that with the article I just read that was posted here in a tweet a bit ago (https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2018/10/the-cruelty-is-the-point/572104/) I was thinking about the research the other person claimed. I did some searching to find out if there is research on the psychological profile of a Nazi out there, but as you are probably not surprised it's hard to research anything related to WWII. Anything with the Nazi title throws the results into mayhem. Does anyone here know of research related to the psychological profiling of them? Is this something that really happened, or something that another forums posters just made up?

Charliegrs posted:Hasn't this happened to a whole bunch of washed up celebrities? It seems to happen to people who came from nothing, made a lot of money, spent it, and couldn’t make more for some reason (eg illness, lost looks.) Actors and sports stars. People who come from money have a better cushion - their peers and family don’t let them fall too far. But there are probably some real train wrecks that came from money and burned all their bridges.
